“I can’t say enough good things about Marlies stay. Tons of communication and pictures. Lots of great buddies to play with. She was so well taken care of. It is wonderful not to have to worry when we are away. We are repeat customers and will book for future vacations. I can’t thank you enough !”
“Amber is so good with our puppy! We were nervous leaving Ellie overnight but she walked right into Amber’s home and was happy to leave us behind! Amber’s updates left us reassured that Ellie was having a wonderful time with lots of playing and attention. We will keep using Amber to watch our Ellie!”
“She was so sweet & took such good care of my baby. I was very relieved and had no worries leaving my dog with her once I met her! Definitely rebooking in the future😊”
“We needed to arrange this at the last minute and she was very flexible. Sent us an update every couple hours and was very attentive. Very friendly and Sophie had a wonderful time.”
“Christina is the absolute BEST! She took care of our 8 month old Goldendoodle for 10 days while we were on vacation. She updated us multiple times a day with adorable pictures of him playing with her dogs and other doggie guests. She went above and beyond to make Benny comfortable and happy. We highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Anna was the best! In the few moments I got to meet her I could tell right away she's a very empathetic, kind and caring person. She is passionate about animals and is great at understanding their behavior and adapting to it. She has her own dogs which are very well taken care of and better trained than my Bara, mine is an only-puppy so it helped with socializing her! She gave me daily updates with very detailed info on my puppy's day and tons of photos and videos. She played with her, gave her tons of treats, took her out on walks and even had movie night with her! I didn't have to worry at all. She completely won my Bara's heart.”
About: I've taken care of pets since I was young. I've always had a dog, cat or bird in my home. My current dog is a rescue. I rescued her 13 years ago and she is now 14 years old. I love all animals, but you can be assured your pet will be treated like a member of my home. They will be loved, respected and treated like royalty. I'm retired, so I have plenty of time to spend with your precious pet. I'm with my dog all day. I even take her with me when I run errands. My yard is fenced in, but I will still take your pet out on walks frequently. I have a small dog, who is the love of my life, to keep your pet company. I recently rescued 2 small dogs. A toy poodle, 2, and a Yorkie-poo, 10 months. They are a mother/daughter duo.
About: I love animals. I always have. I don’t just think of them as animals they are family and while your pet is here they are my family too. Ohana means family and family means nobody gets left behind. I also did dog training and completed it. I just never actually got to open my own dog training program. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I do sometimes sub at my kids school. But for the most part I’m home. Means lots of time to play with your babies and give them all the attention they need. While I am able to do that I am still a mom and I do have to do things while I’m not home your baby will safely be kenneled. I have a huge yard it is not fenced but I do have a small area that is fenced. I have 2 friendly dogs that love to play. I will also be able to crate them for their safety when I’m not home.

“MariJeimi and David did an amazing job watching our Peanut and Hershey - you can tell they truly love and care for animals. They gave us great peace of mind while away with frequent updates/photos on how they were doing. They truly went the extra mile to make sure our pups felt welcome. Both our babies looked like they felt right at home with them and were treated fantastic! It's tough finding the right people to trust with your fur babies but if you've been lucky enough to land on this profile you have to look no further. We definitely will be using them again in the future and are so thankful we found them to care for our pups.”
“Can not say enough great things about our experience. Glenn was absolutely great with communication and you can clearly tell he knows how important our pets are to us. I will always check for his services first for anything my Maxie will need. Maxie stayed with him for a week and frankly, I think she’s disappointed to come home!”
“This was our first time boarding our 1 year old mini golden doodle, Asher. We were a little apprehensive at first. But Karen and Donald put our mind at ease from the moment we had the meet and greet. Asher had a great time on his stay with them! We were grateful for getting the update pics and videos several times a day. Excellent sitters! Highly recommended!!”
“Jennifer has been great with our dogs for years and we will for sure keep coming back. She treats your pet like her own and really goes above and beyond! Highly recommend!”
“I would HIGHLY recommend Cheyenne for pet sitting/boarding! She was so amazing with my cockapoo Sander! She frequently communicated with me via messages/pictures. I felt SO comfortable dropping him off there while I went away for a few days. She will treat your pet just like her own, I cannot say enough wonderful things about her 💕”
“This is my second time asking Nicole to sit for my little buddy Hero. I trust Nicole to take good care of him and make him feel loved while he is with her. Thanks again Nicole!”
“Christy and her family were great with our dog Bucky, who is an excitable one year old Australian Cattle Dog. I got regular updates and felt very good leaving our pup with her.”
“We have two dogs, one who has a lot of energy and anxiety. Rainy and Perry watched both for over a week and sent us daily updates with pictures of activities they all did including daily walks, fetch, treat time, etc. We’ve never seen our dogs handle separation from us this well and can only wonder if our dogs had a better time on vacation then we did! We will definitely have them stay here anytime we go away and highly recommend them for fellow pet owners.”
“Debra and Scott were fabulous with Scruff! She sent pictures and let me know how he was doing. He was so happy and I could tell he’d had a great time with their dogs when I picked him up! I will definitely plan to use them again and would recommend to anyone:)”
“Excellent service. I loved it, he was always in communication and sent me a photo. I recommend them to 💯 Excelente servicio. Me encanto siempre estaba en comunicación y me envio foto. La recomiendo al 💯”
